Hybrids are not all that clean either. The actual process of driving is cleaner in a hybrid, but there are hybrid engines that actually polute just as much if not more than a regular gas engine. This has more to do with filling the fuel cells. In the conversion, there are polutants escaping.

This is truly baffling. Hybrids currently available for sale use regular gas engines, but supplement with batteries and electric motors. Same engine, better mileage - how is it possible this is not better for the environment. There is no commercially available fuel cell car that I am aware of - a few buses in SF and some other metro areas are the only pilot projects that I have seen.
